Hi Mary,

Have you tried looking at church records in Elphin to see if you can find confirmation of Michael?s birth in the parish? Most Catholic records are held locally so you may need to write to the local parish priest for possible assistance. One website that you may find useful is the Irish Times where they give an overview of what records are available in specific parishes. It also shows you where copies of the records are available. For Elphin parish, follow this link:
